00:00Here are the odds for the college football playoff.
00:08Here is how the bracket would look for the college football playoff based solely on those
00:14college football playoff prices and a few head to head tiebreakers that I will break
00:18down as we get past number eight.
00:22Oregon has the best number of any team in the country, minus 100,000 to reach the college
00:29football playoff and the Ducks remain the favorites to win the Big Ten.
00:34However, Ohio State not all that far behind, but because the Ducks at this moment have
00:39the head to head tiebreaker advantage in front of the Buckeyes, Oregon slotted into the number
00:43one seed.
00:44Texas now has life once again in the SEC as Georgia suffers its second conference loss
00:50and despite the fact UGA has the head to head against UT, the Longhorns only have that one
00:55conference loss, minus 1,700 for Texas.
00:59The best number of any SEC team to reach the college football playoff.
01:03Here's where it gets fun, Boise State would be the third highest ranked or third most
01:09likely college football playoff team of our conference title winners around the country
01:14because at minus 300, the Broncos price to reach the CFP is better than that of Miami,
01:20still the favorites in the ACC holding on in front of SMU.
01:24The Mustangs do not have a loss though in conference play in Boise State CFP price better
01:30than any team out of the Big 12.
01:33So Boise State would not only host a college football playoff, or not just host, but not
01:38only earn a spot in a college football playoff, an opening round buy.
01:43Now let's get to the at-large bids, Ohio State at minus 5,000, second best price to reach
01:48the CFP would be in that coveted five spot, an at-large berth, but a very desirable number.
01:55Penn State at minus 850.
01:56Listen, the Nittany Lions lost in their only game as an underdog.
02:00Probably not going to matter.
02:01Penn State going to be a college football playoff team responded hammering Washington
02:05at home in Happy Valley.
02:07Despite its second loss of the year in the first for UGA since the middle portion of
02:122020 against a non-Alabama football program, Georgia still minus 500 to reach the CFP.
02:20To me, I don't know if I agree with the number being that strong, although the path of course
02:25certainly there for the Bulldogs.
02:27Indiana minus 500 in that eight spot in terms of the college football playoff odds.
02:33And here's where it gets tricky.
02:35So you saw Notre Dame at minus 350.
02:37There are four teams right now with a minus 350 price on the FanDuel Sportsbook to reach
02:42the college football playoff, including Tennessee, Alabama, and Ole Miss.
02:48The reason we put Notre Dame in the nine spot is because the Irish and the Volunteers
02:53have only one loss.
02:55So Notre Dame in front of Tennessee and that nine, 10 distinction because Notre Dame has
02:59the better national championship number.
03:02Tennessee elevated in front of Alabama, one loss and the direct head to head.
03:07So the Vols in the 10 spot, Alabama would be the 11 spot because Alabama and Ole Miss
03:13both have two conference losses at this moment.
03:17They do not play each other this year, but Alabama by a dollar at plus 850 has a better
03:22national championship price than that of Ole Miss, but Ole Miss and Alabama both have a
03:29better national championship number than Tennessee and Notre Dame.
03:33But that's how we decided to do our rankings.
03:36BYU would be the fifth highest ranked conference champion or most likely based on the CFP odds.
03:43Still the favorites in the Big 12, but look at Colorado, less than a half buck behind
03:47the Cougs in the Big 12 championship race, 15 cents in terms of the CFP odds.
03:53Miami has the better CFP price and is still the ACC favorite, but SMU unbeaten in ACC play.
